Get your 3rd-5th grade kids engaged in hands-on learning with this Force and Motion Project Unit.
🦭
This physical science unit is packed full of exciting projects that incorporate art and animals to make learning about force and motion fun and interactive.
🐒
This unit is a comprehensive resource designed specifically for physical science in elementary.
🦜
It includes a variety of art-inspired projects that explore different aspects of force and motion. From balancing Jeremy the Leopard Seal on the ice pack to making Peanut the Scarlet Macaw "fly" with static electricity, these projects will captivate your kids’ attention and enhance their understanding of key scientific concepts.
🦊
Elementary kids will do WAY more than fill in some worksheets.
They'll research, create, and build their way through 4 animal-themed force and motion projects.
🦭
You'll know for sure that they understand because...well...you'll be able to see their hands-on projects!
